ShadowRaven Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 so with the advent of things like Irish Cream and chocolate liqueurs and such in coffee. Does that mean it's acceptable for me to start drinking at breakfast? 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pegazus Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Mad today. Not sure why. But I am mad at all of you, my family, the inanimate objects around me, and generally the universe is on my list right now. Possibly other alternative universes as well. Nobody has done anything, mind you. This all a very weird mental state for me. It’s like I’m riding along in my body unable to reason with it. It’s upset and I cannot get it to not be angry. I have it leashed and it isn’t attacking, but it wants to be. Perhaps I am the King of the Moon from Baron Munchausen or something. Might need to go lay in a hammock or a leaf pile or something. 7 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you're a giant poopy-head. There. Now you have a reason to be mad at me. Does that help? 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the last day of summer here. Nearly 80 at noon, getting warmer. I should be out enjoying a walk myself, but I really want to be in the basement painting terrain..... 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re a stinky doo-doo head anyway, so doesn’t change anything. Honestly, it’s like my inner three year old has cropped up. The feeling is decreasing and the family figures it was the Cafe Bustelo espresso I had for breakfast. It’s not much more than my normal sole caffeinated drink (Peet’s black and tan iced espresso at 100mg vs the Bustelo at 150mg), but could be a combination of emptier stomach than my normal coffee break (2pm) and the stress from doing so much physical activity yesterday (tile work and new rock rails on the Jeep). 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Foxxy (not an actual doctor) prescribes bacon if you're able to eat bacon. It solves a number of things. If not bacon, then cookies, or other delightful sweet and pastries. Or maybe I'm just really craving bacon hard to tell. 6 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylverthorne Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 7 hours ago, Gadgetman! said: The only one I know who has a 'big enough' car is my Father. He's 85 and in poor health. And besides, his car is a Suzuki Baleno estate (also known as the Cultus Crescent or the Esteem in other markets. that thing is just 5' tall. Normal people have to do origami with their bodies to get in behind the wheel.) Not even the VW Caddy we have at the office can fit those packages. (IKEA BILLY, boxes are 220cm long. Longer than the diaonal of the cargo gold of that orked machine). My Berlingo CAN hold them because its the 'MultiSpace'(5 seater), and I've taken out 2/3 of the rear seats. When I slide the front passenger seat forward all the way and fold it forwards, I have just enough length there. But my car is quirky... And my insurance lists and me as the sole legal driver. One of those 80wide/200tall BILLYs is destined for my kitchen, at least temporarily, just to hold all my freeze-dried goods.... Going to make a fish soup in a couple of hours. One bag of soup, water, milk, a handful of macaroni, some nutmeg, and about 300gram of 'fish pudding' It usually ends up so thick that if it's allowed to settle for a few minutes before devouring, you can stand a spoon in it. .. we managed to figure out how to wedge something like that into a Prius, and still fit two people in the car. Not a Prius V, mind you; the regular, standard issue Prius. I swear, that car was a pocket dimension, if you knew what you were doing. Suspect we'd have an easier time pulling that stunt with Hlín (Volvo), though. Hlín's a little longer... and if not, there's always the roof rack and rather a lot of rope. I'll take some more rain, please; ours stopped sometime yesterday, and it wasn't enough. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
